Hi Rolf

Unfortunately there isn't a really effective way to increase resolution - the problem is there isn't enough information in a small image to make it large and clear.
You can try enlarging something in Photoshop, but all you're really doing is making bigger patterns of the same pixels.
Going from large to small works - it just doesn't work the other way around.

Here's your second image enlarged in Photoshop from 229 pixels to 500 pixels wide. I have also done an auto colour and contrast balance on it.

You can see it is now a lot fuzzier than the original.

The solution is of course to re-scan at higher resolution if you can.
